Angry What is the issue with the 2010 300 ?

For 1+ yr now I have been having starting issues. 2010 300 Touring 3.5 V6. Engine seized without warning in May. Replaced with a new Mopar engine at 11,000 inc labor. Had car 3 days & won't start again. Took back to mech & couldn't get a diagnosis with or w/o starting. Took to 2 dealerships. Couldn't get diag to send code & said everything was functioning on car. Still issues. Many many tows to shop throughout this time period. Many times stranded. Car was towed at least 6 x's in 1 yr to shop/dealership. 2 wks ago replaced WIN Module, keys programmed. Car started 60 times at least. Paid that at 1600 inc labor. Had car 2 days & again the issue of not starting. Lights come on, radio, blower etc but engine light is on & no elec power light is on. After a few mins power light is off yet vehicle does not turn over or make a sound. Few times car started w/o key being turned in on position. Car may start up again in 2 mins or it may take 2 days to start again. Had diagnostic ran & it shows car is functioning perfectly. WHAT IS THE ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE? You cannot tell me that I am the only on earth that owned a 2010 300 3.5 & the issue has never been heard of. Someone get me an answer to what it is that needs to be addressed on this vehicle for it to start every tiime. I might add, new starter, new battery, new alternator, new plugs, new injectors, new timing chain,engine, seals, wires. H E L P Please

Probably start by dealing with a competent repair shop. $11,000? Son in law just had a Reman 3.7L motor installed in his 2006 Dakota for less than $5k - no issues.

On behalf of the mechanics/dealerships I stand by them. All 5 star rated & BBB accredited. I know them & I trust them. This is an issue with this vehicle if you research it. Recalls on several yrs over starting issues but not on the 2010. Engine costs also depend on new, rebuilt, warranty, etc. Brand NEW Mopar with a great warranty @ $11000 inc install. I'm good with that

Are you even reading what you’re writing? Do you even realize that your writing makes absolutely no sense?

It don't take much to set off ole Curious Joe. He's old and cranky like me but he does make some valuable contributions - from time to time.

I don't suffer fools, especially those who are poor writers.

Well Joe I am NOT a fool. Do NOT refer to me as a fool my man. Perhaps you didn't understand my query about this vehicle. Perhaps it's not composed to your liking. That's ok. She's repaired & running great now. Thanks Joe. HAGD

I'm happy you finally had a positive outcome - couldn't tell by your horrible writing. I'll NEVER be 'your man' - patronizing isn't your strong suit. Happy Trails.
